How The treatment Works
If you are searching for the best nasolabial fold filler near me in the North Shore area, our clinical team provides customized treatments to soften deep lines.
What are Nasolabial Folds?
Nasolabial fold, often referred to as smile lines, are the creases that run from the nose down to the corners of the mouth.
They can be mild in appearance but often time become deeper when we smile or laugh.
As we age, they can grow in length and depth, becoming more noticeable.
What Causes Nasal Folds?
A natural part of the aging process is the loss of collagen production and fat in the cheek area. This causes the cheeks to sag, making the nasolabial folds more prominent.
This is the prominent reason for the loss of fullness and volume. In addition, gravity and sun damage make the folds more prominent.
Nasolabial Fold Treatment Options
There are several options to address nasal fold reduction. At Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa we will review treatment options at your consultation to determine which service is best for you.
- Dermal Fillers – Fillers are an extremely effective treatment for nasolabial fold lines. Fillers plump out the folds thereby softening the depth. For further improvement, a filler can also be added to the cheek area to create a lifting effect which further reduces the nasal fold and restores a more youthful plumpness to the mid-face region.
- Laser Facial – Using the Exilis Ultra device this treatment has no downtime. Ideal for the 35+ age group to stimulate collage in the mid-face area which will plump and tighten to your facial structure. These treatments provide more of an overall anti-aging treatment but the effect will also plump and improve the nasolabial fold area.
- RF Microneedling – For more of a lifting effect, RF Microneedling can stimulate collagen production and also tighten the skin from below to the surface. Treating cheeks and jawline as well will also improve the lifting appearance on the overall lower face.
- AgnesRF – This is the most effective when deep folds or laxity is apparent. With focused microneedling, we can reduce the size and tighten the skin simultaneously. Wonderful results.

Achieving Complete Lower Face Balance
While softening deep smile lines dramatically rejuvenates your appearance, addressing the lower face as a complete unit delivers the most harmonious, natural-looking results.
As we age, volume loss occurs simultaneously around the mouth and within the lips themselves, which can sometimes make smile line corrections look isolated.
Pairing your treatment with our specialized best lip injections near me restores youthful volume, defines the borders, and smooths fine vertical perioral lines.
During your consultation at Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa, we customize a comprehensive profile plan to ensure your results look beautifully balanced and entirely seamless.

The filler is a safe and virtually pain-free treatment. You may experience mild side effects, such as tenderness, bruising, itching, redness, or swelling. These side effects usually last a short time.
Can I resume normal activity after my treatment?
Absolutely! One of the most compelling benefits of Radiesse® and Juvéderm® is that there is no downtime after a treatment. For the first 24 hours following your treatment, you will wish to avoid applying make-up and minimize your sun and heat exposure.
How is Radiesse different from other dermal fillers?
Radiesse® is made with calcium-based microspheres to increase collagen production. A study published in Dermatologic Surgery in 2008 showed that the calcium hydroxylapatite filler in Radiesse® stimulates natural collagen production and continues to do so long after treatment.

There is mild discomfort. The treatment requires no preparation time. Most patients are treated and ready to go within an hour. Our practitioner injects the filler (pre-mixed with lidocaine for comfort) under your skin.
